Pros

Easy place to get a beginning IT job if you present yourself well

Cons

-Datacenters/NOC operations suffer from C-level Northstate executives making decisions they don't understand -Their motto to employees is: "You are FUEL"... Enough said. -For some reason is very intent to staff each facility with as much ex-police or ex-military as they can; predictably, this causes issues with workplace drama/temperament. -Management team above NOC staff is a clique of very lazy and aloof System Administrators who are very disinterested in assisting w/ tasks -No opportunities for career development, as staff is so separated from the employees that make promotional decisions (by design) -This all leads to their best lower-level employees leaving to take better jobs elsewhere

Benefits, pay is average to below average for what they want you to do.

Cons

lower and middle management have been promoted way beyond their capability. If you are family or a relative you can not do any wrong.

Pros

North State has made some key acquisitions that will keep them afloat after losing revenue to landlines going away and the future changes in the TV industry.

Cons

There is still a lot of nepotism and good old boys networking going on and it is not easy to see paths for growth and promotion.
